CA Hazardous presumptions.
In California, some wastes aren’t necessarily listed wastes but they show up in lists. The wastes on three lists in 22 CCR Division 4.5, Chapter 11, Appendix X are automatically presumed to be hazardous when generated. When disposing of one of these wastes, the onus is on the generator to show the waste is neither listed nor characteristic to avoid further regulation. For example…
Suppose you want to get rid of some old paints and paint thinners? Then you are looking at full Title 22, Division 4.5 compliance unless you show none of the characteristics and listings apply. Think it’s easy to show paint wastes are not toxic in California? Let’s just say it’s a multistep process to make that determination. For more compliance morsels, visit our website.
